Migrating data, including mySQL - instructions result in error

Question

I followed the instructions here: http://docs.webfaction.com/user-guide/moving.html?highlight=mysql migration#advanced-migration-guide

But I can't actually import data into the new database as is implied by the instructions!

mysql -u mydatabase -p -D mydatabase < ~/mydatabase.sql
Enter password:
ERROR 1227 (42000) at line 473: Access denied; you need the SUPER privilege for this operation

So, how do I import the data?

OK, I thought this was because of a view issue, but it turns out that since I was importing under a different user than I had exported it under, there was indeed a permissions issue, and I had to edit the sql file to give ownership for the view to the new user.

0	Ah yes. I figured it out. I have a view in the source database and default permissions don't permit the creation of views. permanent link answered 11 Oct '13, 17:03 Arunas 15●2●7 accept rate: 0%
